Looks like a Lyman T-Mag 2 press.

Here's an interesting article I ran across sometime back about the T-7 https://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/20 ... 00-rounds/ Very impressive I thought.

I carry the Blackhawk, the Case, and the Leatherman daily. The belt knife rotates out between a Buck 110, Buck 192 (today), and a case 65 pattern folding hunter. https://i.postimg.cc/cHcY2zB3/DCF5-EBF5-7-F8-D-41-B6-9583-45-E73-BC16755.jpg That's good kit, thanks Thanks, I pretty much feel naked wit...

A very interesting discussion! I carry a Blackhawk 44 Special daily, including IWB concealed in a Simply Rugged Sourdough pancake holster. BUT, I am 6'5 and 340 lbs. CC is very important to me, and if I wasn't already carrying a hand cannon, I might pick something different, probably 357 Magnum as t...

Nice to see the generosity, awesome gesture!

Man oh man, thank you for sharing. I followed your thread on the Hubalek (I forget where that was, was it here or the cast boolit forum? I'm Bazoo on cb.gl forum). Anyways, very awesome find and to have it by Pope is amazing. Thank you for sharing.

LeverGunner

Thank you very much for the pictures and answer.

So the pre-war tang had 20º angles on the sides, and the inlet in the stock had a matching 20º angle, like a dovetail. And post-war, the sides of the tang were 90º and had a matching inlet in the stock?

Hey Fellers, my 1956 Ruger Blackhawk 6&1/2" 44 mag along with a Colt Bowie and my capeing knives, been lots of miles with me... John IMG_20240511_171223029.jpgIMG_20240511_171223029.jpg Very nice all the way around. Nice story on the bowie too, thanks for sharing. Those caping knives look ...

I'll probably go after Whitetail this year with my Winchester 92 in 44 Magnum. My load will most likely be 22.0 W296 under a Ranch Dog 432-265-RF.

LeverGunner

What is the twist for a 22 Short and or Long chambered gun?

I'm a big Case XX fan. I've carried this 65 pattern Folding Hunter for a couple of years now. I do switch out my belt knife for others, but I keep coming back. https://i.postimg.cc/W140V9KM/929-E365-A-A2-E9-4132-85-EC-F1-FC20-CCB5-E4.jpg This I think is the most recent picture of my Blackhawk.

The other day I got all of Missouri Bullet Company's bullets to catalog. I'd talked to them a year ago before I had the site up, and they were excited about the idea then. Now that I'm up and going, they are glad to help. I was told they get a lot requests for measurements that I will provide. https...

Nice find, congratulations.

LeverGunner

Well that's a new one, cool, I guess.

LeverGunner

Good night that's "not aesthetically pleasing"!

I think it will be a good thing, though I wish they didn't have a monopoly on powder. I like that they have a Christian mission statement on their website, https://hodgdonpowderco.com/hodgdon/ Hodgdon Powder Company operates following Biblical principles to honor God. Our mission is to provide quali...

No. I won't. I have the one I bought when we had these made. We shoot it regularly. I had a set of hand-carved ivories put on it. Paul Persinger made them.

Thank you very much for sharing those articles about your guns. That Winchester 50-100-450 is spectacular. I've never seen such closeup photos of the barrel matting with markings, thank you for sharing it with us.

LeverGunner

That's awesome. I didn't know such a critter existed, thank you for sharing. I'm not familiar with Tom Ruger or the Shootist group.

What would it's approximate value be vs the standard stainless Single Six Bisley?

Colt and a Remington. That old Remington is great. I've been looking for one for a few years now. Thank you for sharing. Thank you! That Remington was my grandfather's field knife while he was a Maine game warden in the Allagash. This was prior to and during WW2. He didn't carry the SAA. He had a C...

I have a friend that kayaks on some of the rivers around, and he met some chaps from London. They were all in their 20's and 30's. He said they had never held a gun or fired a gun, and were all super excited when he offered. Not the "guns are scary" attitude at all. They didn't have much t...

I don't know for sure, but I believe that all Winchesters made by Miroku have them, and all Brownings made by Miroku do not. Based on the ones I've owned that's not 100% true. All my Brownings are, indeed, safety-free. I have an 1866 and a 1873, made by Miroku and branded Winchester that have no sa...

I did a search and didn't find any current gun and knife picture threads. I do take a few combo pics from time to time, so I'll get us started.

Wow that is awesome, thank you for sharing. I've been researching the 50-110 and 50-100-450 Winchesters; A friend is purchasing a newly made one, and as a result, I'm reading everything I can on the subject to help him with his reloading. That's not even counting my own interest in all things Winche...

Nice, congratulations. It'll be interesting to see it with the receiver "toned down" as you put it.

I like westerns; Lonesome Dove, El Dorado, Conagher, Dances With Wolves, The Shootist, The Cowboys, The Outlaw Josey Wales, The Good The Bad & The Ugly, Silverado, Crossfire Trail.

Conagher is my favorite. A story about a boy and his Winchester.

It won't be nearly as easy as getting sample bullets that's for sure. I will sell most of the moulds when I'm done, but I haven't decided how many bullets I want to keep from each mould. I'm considering casting a supply from each in case I get a gun and later want to try that bullet. That'll cut int...

I mentioned BulletMatch in my Howdy (introductory) thread, but I thought maybe folks would like to see some of what's going on with it. There has been some exciting developments lately. One of those things; I was blessed to be able to acquire all of Lee Precisions moulds for which I didn't have samp...

Thanks all for the comments. I want to do a test whereby I track the accuracy of 3-5 cases over their life span. So it'd be the same test, but with a group accompanying each firing. And potentially with different brands. Though, that could get time consuming and costly. I'll probably start with just...

Here is a test I did a couple of years back, and have shared it on a couple of forums and on my blog site ( LeverGunner ), that I thought everyone here would find interesting. Sometime back, I posed the question “How many loadings to expect on full length sized 30-30 brass?” The responses I received...

Welp, ya'll opened the can of worms, might as well fish. Here's my Winchester 94 in 30-30. It was made in 71 I think. I previously had thought 70, but new serial number searches conclude otherwise. I've fired about 800 rounds the last 8 years according to my empty powder cans, but most of that was i...

Howdy Chaser, sounds like you have some interesting interests. I'm a cartridge and bullet collector.

I wasn't aware that you could get any of the old style bb/cb caps still. Cool, I'll definitely have to source some.

It does look quite good. I think my favorite comfort food is beef roast, potatoes, carrots, and corn nibblers, with white bread muffins. I cook the roast and vegetables in the crockpot, salt and pepper on the meat, but other wise bland. I like salt on my food when it's served. For a snack I like old...
